sweepstakes and various
schemes to separate the
sucker trom his money that
is sweeping the country.
The sucker doesn't stop to
'hink that it is all a money

lig money, too. And that
while he, the sucker, is
pursuing a nebulous win,
the backers of these
schemes are lining their
pockets and enriching
themselves, at his expense.
It is sad but true, but hu
man nature is so consti

the magic words, “win,”

and lay their money on
the line. The truth of the
matter is. the chances of
winning are so slim, the
sucker doesn't even have
an even break for his
money. But the fascina
tion of winning a huge
sum of money for free is
so great, few of us suckers
can resist.
TANIA HYDE SAYS:
Why do nations, to gain a
military or political objec

face, resort to killing off
each other The proper
study of mankind, is man,
said Pope. But it seems
that history has proven
that man prefers to kill
rather than to study.

THE CHOWAN HERALD, EDENTON, NORTH CAROLINA. THURSDAY, MAY 8, 1868.
the thought occurred to
me: How long would it
have taken a century of
Julius Caesar’s hard-bitten
veterans of the Gallic
campaigns, led by a tough
centurion, to have cleaned
up our campus riots, dis
orders, civil insurrections
and the violence that has
the country in its grip.
Not very long, I’m sure.
But then, we would have
to take into consideration
the philosophy of warfare
in Caesar’s time which
was no quarter given and
no quarter taken. But that
wouldn’t work with us to
day; for we are living in a
time when all such dis
turbances are handled with
kid gloves.

A boy learns to be a father
from his father; and a girl
learns to be a mother from

family problem has been

when history repeats it

remember the happenings
of their childhood, under
the parental roof, and that

In God’s words, in the

RFDTIME FOR BASS
Spawnin' time is fishin’
time. And it s i.gnt around
the corner, already under
way in the south, about
to begin up north.
For many bass fisher
men this event signals the
start of the wildest action
thev can expect to find
during the season.
The spawning ot Ameri
ca's favorite game fish
holds more than passing
interest, comment the ang
ling experts at Mercury
outboards.
When early spring water
temperatures approach 60
degrees, fish move into
shallow water. Papa Bass
works hard to fan out a
nest in the bottom and in
duces Mama Bass to lay
her eggs in this specially
created haven; the number
may range from 4,000 to
10,000.
This done, Mama flips
her tail and disappears,
leaving the old man to pro
tect the nest, against all
intruders for a period of
incubation that may last
from two days to more
than a week.
And protect the nest he
dees.
Any creature or object
that trespasses is violently
attacked. Hence, the ef
fectiveness of almost any
fishing lure plopped in the
vicinity:
When the eggs hatch.
Papa Bass obviously fam
ished after several days of
playing watch-dog reverts
to his usual bad disposition
and glutton’s habits.

THERE’S A DIET TO

The American public is
now well aware that any
effective weight control
program must include diet
ing.
Hundreds—perhaps thou
sands —of different diets

are billed as a “surefire”
means of trimming off ex
cess pounds.
The American Medical
Association’s home health
book, Today’s Health Ctjude,
points out that weight can
be lost on virtually any
dietary plan, good or bad,
that ensures a caloric in
take less than energy used.
It is apparent, however,
that many diets are only
temporarily effective and
clc not promote the funda
mental purpose of perma
nent weight loss.
Reducing diets, ideal
weight charts, calory-count
ing tables are available al
most everywhere. It is our
purpose here to discuss
briefly some principles of

i eduction
Generally, physicians do
not recommend the crash
diet in routine weight re
duction. Instead, they are
more likely to prescribe a
diet aimed at a gradual
weight reduction over sev
eral months.
It usually isn’t necessary
to go hungry while diet
ing. Your physician can
help you work out a diet
that will be satisfying and
at the some time permit
you to lose weight.
